ENGLEWOOD, Colo., May 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (NASDAQ:RRGB) is raising a glass this World Cocktail Day with the debut of its new summer beverage menu, arriving at all Red Robin restaurants on May 18. Guests can sip, relax and escape, with Red Robin's new lineup of handcrafted margaritas, tropical cocktails and refreshing mocktails that serve up instant vacation-in-a-glass vibes for every dining occasion.
At the center of the new beverage menu is a playful twist on the iconic Freckled Lemonade as it gets a boozy upgrade with the Freckled Strawberry Daiquirita, a creative mashup of a margarita and daiquiri, featuring Espolòn® Reposado Tequila, Bacardi® Superior Rum, strawberries, agave and lime. The drink delivers the YUMMM® with a juicy, fruit-forward cocktail that's both tasty and fun, available on the rocks or frozen. Guests can also enjoy a take on a fan-favorite remix with the Spiked Freckled Lemonade, now available for just $6*. Made with Svedka® Citron Vodka, Minute Maid® Lemonade and strawberries that come together in a bright, easygoing option that delivers something fun and light without stretching the budget.
Building on America's growing love of tequila, Red Robin continues to raise the bar with high-quality spirits at an approachable price guests can enjoy with the introduction of Teremana® Reposado Tequila, a premium small-batch spirit founded by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Introducing the Watermelon Dragon Fruit Margarita, a vibrant blend of Teremana® Reposado Tequila, Cointreau®, agave, lime, dragon fruit and watermelon purée, finished with a zesty Tajin rim resulting in a colorful crowd-pleaser with a sweet-and-tangy balance made for warm-weather cravings. For guests who enjoy a little heat with their sip, the Jalapeño Heat Margarita is a sweet-heat combination of Espolòn® Reposado Tequila, Cointreau®, agave, lime and jalapeño with a Tajin® rim, sweetened with passion fruit and mango for a bright, spicy finish.
"Our new beverages are all about making every visit feel a little more like a getaway," said Brian Sullivan, executive chef and vice president of Culinary & Beverage Innovation at Red Robin. "We leaned into bright, juicy flavors that pair perfectly with our menu and bring a little extra fun to the table. Made with quality ingredients and priced right, these new beverages make it easy for guests to treat themselves."
Rounding out the cocktails is the Captain Colada, a tropical escape featuring Smirnoff® No. 21 Vodka, Captain Morgan® Spiced Rum, coconut, pineapple and a Myers's® Dark Rum float, bringing a drink that's laid-back and full of flavor.
